Dry Suit Inflation Kits

Cold water, long bottom times, and/or helium-based mixes encourage divers to seek an alternative means to inflate their dry suit. The use of a secondary bottle filled with Argon is the most common method used to increase the insulation properties of thermal garments. Halcyon offers two time-tested methods, providing quick, secure, and lightweight mounting options for drysuit inflation sources. Our compact OPV can be fit to any conventional first-stage regulator, allowing excess first-stage pressure to vent from the system.
  • 6-cf mounting kit secures a small inflation bottle directly to the Halcyon backplate.
  • 14-cf mounting kit secures a larger inflation source to the diver’s single- or double-tank system.
  • OctoGrip strap securely holds either size argon bottle to your single- or double-tank system.
  • Compact Over Pressure Relief Valve fits to any conventional first stage.
